Pythagoras’ Theorem
• We can use Pythagoras’ theorem to find the a shorter side by re-arranging the formula.
• c2 = a2 + b2
• a2 = c2 – b2

Pythagoras’ Theorem
a2 = c2 – b2
a2 = 132 – 122
a2 = 169 – 144a2 = 25a = √25a = 5

Pythagoras’ Theorem
a2 = c2 – b2
a2 = 142 – 62

Practical Problems• When using Pythagoras’ theorem to solve
practical problems, draw a right-angled triangle to represent the problem– Identify the unknown variable by reading what the
questions is asking– Identifying the known values and substitute these
into Pythagoras’ theorem– Solve for the unknown value– Use the result to write the answer as a complete
sentence

Pythagoras’ Theorem• A plane flies 120km due north, and then heads
due east for 80km. How far is the plane from it’s starting point?
120km

c2 = 1202 + 802
c2 = 14400 + 6400c2 = 20800c = √20800c = 144.22km (2dp)
